Otis Elevator Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of United Technologies Corporation, is one of the world's largest manufacturers and maintainers of people moving products, including elevators, escalators, shuttle systems and moving walkways. Headquartered in Farmington, Connecticut, USA, Otis employs more than 60,000 people, offers products and services in more than 200 countries and territories and maintains more than 1.35 million elevators and escalators worldwide. So just imagine where we can take you! This position is for a materials or mechanical engineer with a background in the application of non-metallic materials.

Belts are a key component in our Gen2 line of elevators, with the belt jacket being a critical part of the belt.

  • Generate test plans, carry out tests, and evaluate the test results for the belt jacket.
  • Generate a correlation between material properties and belt performance.
  • Stay up to date with industrial advances in materials which have a potential for use as a belt jacket.

The work may require 1 or 2 international trips per year, in order to visit suppliers or customers.

Upon completion of the projects shown above, the engineer should be able to support and eventually lead developments of CSB or other mechanical elevator components, especially those involving non-metallic materials.

JOB REQUIREMENTS:
BS degree in Materials or Mechanical Engineering is required. MS degree is desirable. A dual degree in both mechanical and materials engineering is also desirable.

Ideal candidate will have:
